Keep your product name!
Some people like it, some hate it. Personally I like it as I think it sums up our output sometimes, mis-spelt and with crap in the middle, but then it was my idea.
There's an entry for change your product name as well. If you feel strongly one way or the other please vote for this or that.

Too be frank, I’d like to get English working better first, but I’ll look at this then.

Change your product name!
Branding is important. I "get" your brand -- OCR with the power and speed of a v'raptor.
But I can't help but think people will see it and think, "velo-CRAP-tor."
It would be a shame for a great product to be hampered by a crappy name.
17 votesThanks for this Steven. VelOCRaptor is a bit of an experiment – working title turned domain name I suppose. I’ll be really interested to see if other people agree with you.

Add as a service in Snow Leopard
From the services menu it would be useful from say preview to be able to send to VelOCRaptor
12 votesI’ve still to get my head around services, but thank you, that would be a nice integration

add vCard (vcf) option
Having the ability to transfer/convert into Address Book would be very useful

Use Document Window as the Progress Indicator
How about make the little view of the document scroll itself to the page being processed as a way to indicate progress.
2 votesThanks for the suggestion – it’s very clever.
Personally I like to be able to read the document as VelOCRaptor is doing its stuff, and I worry that we’d fight over control. But we do need a progress indication, so I’ll think about it.

Keep up the good work!
This is a great start. If you can get the output PDF size from bloating when OCR'd, I will probably buy a full license.
2 votesIf you buy a full licence, we may be able to afford to make it work for you ;-)

Improve copied text layout
Maybe it's me but 'Select all' just doesn't. Seems to have about the same functionality as copying text in Adobe Reader. If my data is in a table I want it kept that way. Neither PDF nor Raw text is that useful.

Add text-to-speech support
See Apple discussion http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jsp
1 voteThanks for the suggestion.
If you open the app without dropping a file on it – then drop a file, the window will stay open after OCR. You can then select all and use services to read it without saving as PDF. -
Add support for JSTalk rather than AppleScript
...go on, it's easier than adding applescript and the syntax wouldn't suck
http://gusmueller.com/blog/archives/2009/03/introducing_jstalk__an_alternative_to_applescript.html
1 voteI’ve some sympathy for this suggestion, although it would have to follow after AppleScript, because we can support pretty much all scripting languages through that interface.

Use dictionary to improve accuracy
Try finding words, and don't put special characters everywhere.
That's "text" recognized by velocraptor:

Thanks
